DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

Get some Esso 99 Supreme in that tank and take it a good run to blast the fuel system through.
Don't be putting any of that Ethanol rubbish in.

Forget that, just seen you have spark. Doh!

If there is no spark it will be flywheel crank sensor.
Had one go on me and you end up with no spark.

Brazing a piece in would be my option, I know a guy who'd help you if you struggle but based up my way in Rotherham.
Does a lot of fabrication work for us and restores classic cars in his free time.

I'm down for the weekend in the 964.

I'm insured with classicline which includes European breakdown as standard for that specific vehicle so if you ...

Great fun but was always over too quickly.
Looks great fun in an original mini and yours looked quick.

Double D I think?

Hi

Happy Birthday Mike, have a good one.
